another day meanders by

[bantha_fodder]

I feel that there is no point in being coy about it.

My birthday is one month from today. Feel free to ask what fannish presents you can give me. Also, you should feel free to tell me your own birthdate, and what fannish gift I can give to you (can't give if I don't know).

PS I own a Bardot CD! How did this ever happen?

I didn't realise Bardot CDs were still in existence! Gah, there's a show I'd rather forget.

How about icons as fannish presents? What do you feel like?

I actually have to post a thread like this sometime today. My birthday is on Monday.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

I must admit, it's not like I just purchased it today or anything. But it's there! In its pink glory! And I'm dancing around my house to 'Poison,' but that is totally not the point.

Icons are always an acceptable fannish gift! I would love something with girl cylons.

Now I feel bad, though, for I have made my post a month in advance, but your birthday is in six days.

[shadowserenity.livejournal.com]

Girl Cylons it is then!

My birthday just crept up suddenly! Probably best to notify people early, though.

What fannish presents can I give you?

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Oh Tris, you know my mind so well, I would not wish to inhibit you, or hold you back. PS I shall email in just one moment.

[stars-like-dust.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHAHHA!

I am writing you Narnia, just as you like it.

TOO BAD IF YOU WANT ANYTHING ELSE.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Oh good, so I can die of jealousy on my birthday!

Oh, Clairza my dovely. Not only do you get to make a judgement call re: your fannish gift to me, you get to send me something, too! As I have already purchased the thing with which I shall be gifting you when finally your birthday arrives, I feel this is only fair.

[stars-like-dust.livejournal.com]

I am totally waiting until Brisbane to buy you something. I mean, seriously. Do you want something from Woop Woop? I THINK NOT.

[mandysbitch.livejournal.com]

Bardot CDs may well be collector's items one day...

And can I get you a fannish present? Story of some sort?

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

I always miss your birthday, so instead, I think we should go and have coffee or dinner or something.

[mandysbitch.livejournal.com]

Oh we should! That would be awesome. Come and have dinner at the Thai place near me - 'cheap and cheerful' as my friend A would say. :)

This is in one month? I could be in Thailand... but it won't be for long - we'll work around it. :)

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

What Thai place is near you? I can't think of any. But yes, that sounds fabulous. When do you go to Thailand?

[mandysbitch.livejournal.com]

There's a Thai place on Walcott street almost direct in front of my flat. It's called "Full Moon Thai" - it's the craziest place.

And I don't have dates for Thailand yet - I was told it's probably the first week in July

[zeplum.livejournal.com]

Pick your poison, babe. Tell me what you wants!

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Remember how I hit you up for that Pretender/SGA plot bunny the other day. Yeah. Otherwise, I am on a TOTAL Pretender high at the moment. Preferably Pretender crossovers, but Pretender anything.

Which reminds me - have you ever read this? It's a Pretender/Desperate Housewives crossover, and it's Lyle and Parker and it's alsdkfalkjsdsdff.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

OR you could try your hand at Dune fic, if you really wanted to. I mean, it shouldn't just be me out here, trying to take over the world with my love of Dune.

[zeplum.livejournal.com]

I've been mentally working on the Pretender thing, so I'm waiting to get on that. It may be more of a 'Jarod leaving for SGA' thing that Jarod actually on Atlantis, but then again, by the time I can sit down to do it, something might've inspired that part too.


Dude, as soon as I get through with Dune, or at least a little bit more of the book, I'm so going to try my hand at it. I'm like six or seven chapters in and the only people I like are the Rev Mother, Gurney and Mapes.

Can't get over the fact that Paul's not supposed to have blond hair, either. I know, I've seen the original version of the movie, but apparently I prefer to have whatisface as Paul and Kyle McLaughlin as Agent Cooper.

[archetypal.livejournal.com]

I'd kind of like to write you a fic if that's okay. Could you rattle off your favorite fandoms/fic scenarios for me?

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Well, Faith seems like as good a place as any to start. I love Faith out in the world, discovering things and getting into trouble but not too much trouble because she kind of likes the world.

I love Mirrormask fic back in the real world, unValentine and Helena and the things they aren't sure are real.

I made an X-Men wishlist here.

Spooks fic, Danny and Zoe doing anything, OH MY GOD could a pairing get more awesome than two spies who live together and cover for one another?

[archetypal.livejournal.com]

Hrm. I really, like the idea of Faith, I haven't written her for years! Any specifics? Setting? Favorite lines? Characters you don't want to see? Cross overs?

Oo.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Nothing specific, just what I said above. Faith out in the world, discovering things and getting into trouble.

[sajee.livejournal.com]

Whaddyawantforyabirfday?

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

a penguin.

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

Give me a prompt, and there are roughly equal chances I will do it on time, I will get it in late, or I will forget it entirely - but that's .66 odds of getting fic!

Which, you know, today? IRONIC.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

EXCELLENT.

Isabel=Izzie trying to decide what to do on her break, and meeting Gonzo and very nearly deciding to become a vet before realising that he, too, is an alien.

[annaalamode.livejournal.com]

I was planning on getting you your very own real time photo shoot of grass growing. Only for you! ;) It's what all the cool birthday girls are getting.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

You are so good to me! So thoughtful and everything.

[annaalamode.livejournal.com]

I keep a special place for you in my heart. (But, shhhh!, I don't like to talk about it. It's too sacred.) Seriously, is there something that you would like? Besides grass?

[bekkypk.livejournal.com]

Oh man... My writing skillz are very bad at the moment, but if you let me know, I'll see what i can do fic or pic-wise *nod*
xx

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

HAHAH NARNIA DUH.

[bekkypk.livejournal.com]

I'll see what I can do :)

[aluminiumorange.livejournal.com]

Hee I loved the first Popstars series. I am an unashamed pop music fan.

Fannish giftage... I say give me the fandom/s you want and I'll do you a icon/wallpaper/LJ header/website(w/coding) set :D

my birthday is on July 23... and I would adore you for a Abby/Hannibal Blade fic if you were so inclined.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

DEAL. If you know the Pretender at all, I would love a Pretender set. Next on the list would be a La Femme Nikita set. Otherwise, a Hannibal/Abby set.

Do you want your birthday fic pre/post/during movie?

[aluminiumorange.livejournal.com]

I've watched a few eps of Pretender (it always throws me when I see ads for Less Than Perfect and hey! there's Miss Parker lol) so I'm doing a search for pictures. I also saw a couple of LFN eps to so i'll start a search for that too. Any other fandoms? (I so want an excuse to hire out Children of Dune again) Cause i'll do a wide selection of icons etc :) a bit of variety.

As for birthday fic... pre-movie! :D (mayhap a riff on that conversation we had?)

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

How do you see ads for Less Than Perfect? They don't air that here, do they?

HIRE OUT CHILDREN OF DUNE. I would love a Children of Dune set, also.

Basically anything from my post of OTP would make me flail all over the place in joy.

[aluminiumorange.livejournal.com]

They play the Less Than Perfect on Austar/Fox 8... and sometimes randomly on Ch 7.

Yay! Now I have an excuse to watch CoD again! (prettttty golden colourrrs) post of OTP... ok right got it ;D

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Okay, darling, what fannish presents would you like? I must warn that I run a few weeks late on getting people's fannish b-day presents done, but I'm game.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

What are the chances of getting a Roswell/The Matrix crossover, where they discover they can't be aliens because they're all in the Matrix? OR the machines discover that there are aliens because they process a body (say, Nasedo), and discover that it's different and start analysing the other living humans, one pod at a time, both inside the Matrix and out, and the Nebbachudnezzar races to save these people, even though they're not sure why the agents are after them.

Ah, if you can't do it, it's cool. I just had the idea just then is all.

[gobsmackit.livejournal.com]

Completely devoid of talent as I am, I am nevertheless wondering if you can think of anything with which I could provide you?

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Well, if you are devoid of talent, perhaps I don't want a present!

I want a mix cd of songs. Over the internets is acceptable. The theme is 'old friendships that never quite work out.'

I'm on it!

[gobsmackit.livejournal.com]

The theme is 'old friendships that never quite work out.'

Are you trying to give me a hint, or something? >.>

[resmin.livejournal.com]

What would you like for your birthday fic-wise?

My birthday is August 31st and I would like to see something involving either Chani or the twins where Ghani is old. Fic, icons, whatever.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Excellent! I approve of this plan! *makes notes*

Can I get some Chloe/Lex?

[resmin.livejournal.com]

Anything in particular? Smutty, location, lyric, etc?

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Future fic. Set in Metropolis. Chloe and Lex meet for the first time in years. Lex is going VERY WELL, and also has a wife, but that is excellent because that just means infideliciousness!
